  • Patent number: 11874799
    Abstract: A content staging system includes a content engine structured to receive content including a plurality of dataset elements from a content source, determine whether a content amount of the received content exceeds a memory capacity threshold, and auto-switch between memory and a file system during content processing based on the content amount. The content staging system includes a processing engine communicably coupled to the content engine. The processing engine is structured to receive the content including a plurality of dataset elements, and transform the plurality of dataset elements based on a source agnostic file definition format. The source agnostic file definition format supports content encryption, track a field of the plurality of dataset elements, or a combination thereof.

  • Patent number: 10365797
    Abstract: A computerized system and method are presented that creates implicit content on a mobile device by monitoring and recording input from sensors on the device. Metadata from the implicit content and from user-created content is then analyzed for the purpose of event identification. Using the metadata and event identification, the content is created into clusters, which can be confirmed by the user as actual events. Events can then be grouped according to metadata and event information into a presentation grouping. Users can also be associated with organizations, allowing the sharing of content and event definitions between the organization and its member users. Users can create ad hoc organizations with a particular subset of other users, which simplifies the creation of event meta data and content sharing with other users in the ad hoc organization.

Using the metadata and event identification, the content is created into clusters, which can be confirmed by the user as actual events. Events can then be grouped according to metadata and event information into a presentation grouping. Presentation groupings can be presenting using a map and timeline interface. The system augments content concerning an event by searching for related content. Users viewing the presentation grouping can add additional user content. The system can also add content from users that attended the same event.

  • Publication number: 20180067985
    Abstract: A computerized system and method are presented that provide access to a research archive for researching fundamental texts of a variety of spiritual and religious domains. The research archive is oriented around ideas having snippets from the fundamental texts. Each idea is associated with a single life issue tag and a religious or spiritual domain. Each idea is further associated with a fixed number of commentaries that comment on the snippet from the point of view of the religious domain and its relationship to the associated life issue tag. The fixed number of commentaries are each written with respect to a particular role. Customized study guides to the spiritual documents can be created using the commentaries by selecting religious or spiritual domains or life issue tags to choose a subset of commentaries to be displayed with the spiritual document.

  • Publication number: 20170300525
    Abstract: A computerized system and method are presented that provide access to three data collections that can form the foundations of a spiritual journey, namely a research archive for researching fundamental texts of a variety of spiritual and religious domains, a personal reflection data collection for reflecting upon a personal life journey, and a community conversation data collection that provides users with an opportunity to explore the research archive and their personal reflections in a social community setting. The research archive is oriented around ideas having snippets from the fundamental texts. The various elements in the data collections are associated with life issue tags and religious or spiritual domains. By analyzing a user's selected domain or the domain of displayed content, and by analyzing the life issue tag associated with displayed content, the system and method can suggest related content from elsewhere in the data collections.

    Abstract: A computerized system and method are presented that creates implicit content on a mobile device by monitoring and recording input from sensors on the device. Using the metadata and event identification, the content is created into clusters, which can be confirmed by the user as actual events. Events can then be grouped according to metadata and event information into a presentation grouping. Presentation groupings can be presented using a map and timeline interface, and can be augmented using content from external sources, other users, or viewers of the content. Themes can be created for presentation groupings that format the presentation groupings according to stored formatting appropriate to the theme. Themes can suggest theme events to which users can assign places and times. Information about future theme events can then be used to trigger a request for content or to trigger the creation of implicit content.

  • Publication number: 20140279925
    Abstract: A computerized system and method are presented that utilize the assistance of subject matter experts to create a research archive for researching fundamental texts of a variety of spiritual and religious domains. Using a subject matter expert interface that provides tools not available to users of the archive database, the subject matter experts identify ideas having snippets from the fundamental texts. Each idea is associated with a single life issue tag and a religious or spiritual domain. Through the subject matter expert tools, subject matter experts are requested to provide commentaries that comment on the snippet from the point of view of the religious domain and its relationship to the associated life issue tag. The commentaries are each written with respect to a particular role.
